Pull read-only kernel memory updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds two (security related) enhancements to the kernel's
handling of read-only kernel memory:
- extend read-only kernel memory to a new class of formerly writable
kernel data: 'post-init read-only memory' via the __ro_after_init
attribute, and mark the ARM and x86 vDSO as such read-only memory.
This kind of attribute can be used for data that requires a once
per bootup initialization sequence, but is otherwise never modified
after that point.
This feature was based on the work by PaX Team and Brad Spengler.
(by Kees Cook, the ARM vDSO bits by David Brown.)
- make CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA always enabled on x86 and remove the
Kconfig option. This simplifies the kernel and also signals that
read-only memory is the default model and a first-class citizen.
(Kees Cook)"

The error return err is not initialized for the case when pci_map_rom

Atmel devices in this family have some quirks not found in other similar

contents, and the control word sent at the start of each operation
varies in bit length.
This commit adds quirk support to the driver and modifies the read
implementation to support non-sequential reads for consistency with
other misc/eeprom drivers.

The Virtio Over PCIe (VOP) bus abstracts the low level hardware
details like interrupts and mapping remote memory so that the same VOP
driver can work without changes with different MIC host or card
drivers as long as the hardware bus operations are implemented. The
VOP driver registers itself on the VOP bus. The base PCIe drivers
implement the bus ops and register VOP devices on the bus, resulting
in the VOP driver being probed with the VOP devices. This allows the
VOP functionality to be shared between multiple generations of Intel
MIC products.

The kernel sometimes fails to link when lkdrm is built-in and
compiled with clang:
relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_THM_CALL against `.bss'
The reason here is that a relocation from .text to .bss fails to
generate a trampoline because .bss is not an executable section.
Marking the function 'noinline' turns the relative branch to .bss
into an absolute branch to the function argument, and that works

The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
drivers/misc/Kconfig:config ARM_CHARLCD
drivers/misc/Kconfig: bool "ARM Ltd. Character LCD Driver"
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
We explicitly disallow a driver unbind, since that doesn't have a
sensible use case anyway, and this driver did not have a ".remove"
function coded for non-modular drivers either.
Since module_platform_driver() uses the same init level priority as
builtin_platform_driver() the init ordering remains unchanged with
this commit.
We don't replace module.h with init.h since the file already has that.
We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
is already contained at the top of the file in the comments.
